Parentlock Part Two!!

As always, I can guarantee happy endings, Sherlock being amazing with children, and lots of love ❤️

Parentlock List 1, Parentlock 3

Unglamorous by YayCoffee 2k words

“John's heart is showing, and it leaps out and brushes Sherlock's face”

notes: john sees sherlock being lovely with rosie and falls deeper in love, obviously.

Rosie the Troublemaker by AmyTheMess 5.5k words

“Post-season 4, a few years later...7-year-old Rosie Watson gets called to the principal office. What a surprise when it's not John but Sherlock that shows up at the headmaster's door to pick her up”

notes: Sherlock defending Rosie every time she gets in trouble, and John finding out about it eventually.

Operation Homecoming by PlainJane 6.9k words

“Sherlock knows what he wants, and he's set about to get it.”

notes: soft and slow, the two of them finally drift closer.

Coming Home by Disc0inferno 2k words

“John keeps falling asleep in Baker Street, and Sherlock decides to finally call him out on it.”

Hidden Changes by MaddyisMo 🔒 2k words

“For the prompt: Sherlock is mid case at NYS and John has to pick up toddler Rosie. When he brings her in, there’s a few incredulous questions about Sherlock helping raise her from Greg and snide remarks from Donovan. Rosie is a bit tired and fussy. However, as soon as Sherlock walks in, Rosie lights up and reaches for him and he settles her on his hip without blinking and carries on working, while she rests her head under his chin and settles down. The others are surprised, John is not”

Over Eggs and Bacon by UnrelentingHost 3k words

“Sherlock freezes every time John observes him interacting with Rosie. John decides to do something about it.”

notes: quick little getting together, they’re almost arguing while confessing their love to each other, sherlock is proud of loving rosie

Oscillation by @aquilea-of-the-lonely-mountain 4.2k words 🔒

“John reached for his own little parcel on the table. He eyed it curiously and reached out to remove the wrapping paper. “Don’t open it. Please.” John’s movements stopped immediately. The parcel remained wrapped. He looked up and watched Sherlock with wide eyes, surprise and concern about his sudden outburst written all over his face.

“I … I’ve realized that I made a mistake.”

notes: oscillation on the pavement means a love affair …

Home by @aquilea-of-the-lonely-mountain

“Suddenly, Sherlock couldn’t get his suitcase fast enough. Impatiently, he grabbed it and hurried through the masses toward the exit. A month abroad had been far too long.”

notes: absence makes the heart grow fonder, or simply, makes the heart miss what its fond of.

Your Daughter by loveanddeathandartandtaxes 2.2k words

“Soon enough everything in the house that could reasonably called 'John's' or 'Abigael's' is either wedged into the car or stacked by the front door, and it's a weight off his shoulders, actually, to know he's moving back to Baker Street indefinitely.”

notes: Sherlock is attentive and caring, John falls even more in love

A Decent Proposal by @england-would-fall

“When John tells Sherlock that he's ready to re-marry, the detective offers his particular skills in support of his best friend. However, John's request is not quite what he expects...”

Shape of My Heart by MissDavis @missdaviswrites 4.6k words

February, 2021: John (finally) moves back to Baker Street. / John opened his eyes. "Thought we agreed we weren't going to get takeaway for every meal.” "We won't. This is a special occasion."

notes: quick little pining, moving back in and getting together

Permenant Fixture by @vitruvianwatson 18.8k words

“ Now, as Rosie sat curled up against Sherlock’s side, John watched and wondered exactly how he had ended up here. Domesticity had never suited him before, not at any point in his life. His disastrous marriage had been proof of that. But somehow, here in the warmth and safety of 221B Baker Street, here with Sherlock Holmes reading medical jargon to his daughter, Sherlock’s bony feet nudging against his leg, John couldn’t imagine anyplace that would make him happier.”

notes: have reread many times, figuring out what they are, rosie dropping a “dada” makes them finally talk

Full Circle by CumberQueer 13.7k words 🔒

“Sherlock Holmes has noticed that his best friend and crime-solving partner John Watson is doing well - too well for what they've been through, if you ask him. Sherlock is worried John is seeing someone that is making him very happy, and intends to find out who. But first: data. Featuring a spreadsheet of John Watson's Smiles, a parentlock makeover for 221b, and John being charming af.”

notes: slowish first time, laughing during sex, convos about what they are, a spreadsheet of john’s smiles

Fanfics I really liked in December 2023

So. Since I keep a list of what I´ve read anyway (there´s always a list), I will rec all the fics I´ve wholly enjoyed on a monthly basis. Old and new, canon or AU, big or small authors, long or short but nearly always Johnlock (-ish).

Inscrutable to the Last by DiscordantWords @discordantwords

When a series of bombings in London ensues and John learns that Sherlock is not only alive but also back, at first he draws the wrong conclusions. A great alternative version of how it could have gone after the hiatus.

The secret patient by PlainJane

WWII, the Italian campaign. Dr. John Watson is left behind at a lonely chapel with a mysterious patient who cannot be evacuated with the rest of the field hospital, due to his injuries. Inspired by "The English Patient".

The Way Home by Calais_Reno@calaisreno

It's Christmas Eve, and Sherlock's landlord has evicted him. He's left with only one alternative: go home. Spend Christmas with his family. On the train, he meets someone who might just be having an even worse holiday. One immediately has to hug this insecure Sherlock and lovely John.

Cold Inside by LoloLolly @amyreadsandstresses

Sherlock has just shot Magnussen, is in prison the isolation eats away at his sanity. John feels adrift and wants to help. Mycroft is equally untethered, scrambling for options. Perhaps they can manage to save Sherlock and rid themselves of Mary in one fell swoop. Lovely S3 fix-it with hurt/comfort.

Hard Rain by writerfan2013

After the Fall. Sherlock and John are apart, but each encounter the same mysterious organization. Sherlock is undercover and John gets abducted but in the end they reunite and solve the case. Really suspenseful casefic.

Adler’s by Elianara

John meets Sherlock while the detective is working undercover in Ms Adler’s establishment. John ends up getting a different sort of excitement than he came for. A fun different first meeting.

Five Fics Friday: September 8/23

Happy Friday everyone! My last weekend of my holidays, and I am so sad, LOL. Let's enjoy the weekend together with some great fics added to my MFL list recently :) Enjoy!

RECENT MFLs

Treasure for the Senses by happyeverafter72 (T, 2,639 w., 1 Ch. || ACD / Granada Canon || Established Relationship, Autistic Sherlock, Case Fic, Fluff, Cuddling / Snuggling, Kissing, Skinny Dipping, Vacationing) – Holmes takes Watson on a break to his family's holiday home in Warwickshire. Their rest and relaxation is interrupted by a case from the local village.

John's missing Wednesday by PlainJane (E, 7,034 w., 1 Ch. || Series 3 Fix It, Anal Sex, Rimming, Oral Sex, Bondage / Discipline, Military Kink, Dubious Consent, Light Dom/Sub) – "Now John I’d poison. Sloppy eater – dead easy. I’ve given him chemicals and compounds that way; he’s never even noticed. He missed a whole Wednesday once, didn’t have a clue. "What really happened when Sherlock slipped his best friend a little something...

In The Arms Of The Angel by Watermelonsmellinfellon (M, 8,585 w., 3 Ch. || Fallen Angel AU || Friendship, Angels/Wings, BAMF John, Trust, Fluff, Romance, Eventual Happy Ending) – The human population possesses the ability to grow feathers from their spines, but less than even five million at a time ever actually grow any. A feather for a life. Every life saved, earned a feather. The feathers would overlap each other, until there was finally enough to create a wing and if some were lucky, two wings.

Primavera by Berty (T, 9,503 w., 1 Ch. || Case Fic, Couple for a Case, Italy, World Travel, Declarations of Love, Alternate Timelines, Restaurants, Kissing) – Italy in the springtime is as romantic as it gets but is it enough to free unspoken words and feelings after years of silence?

Somatic Theory Series by CaitlinFairchild (E, 67,872+ w. across 8 Works || Series WiP || BDSM, PWP, Sub Sherlock, Established Relationship, Orgasm Delay/Denial, Bondage, Top John, Anal /Oral Sex, Masturbation, Enthusiastic Consent, Sex Toys, Rimming, Dirty Talk, Rough Sex, Humiliation, Additional Kinks) – “Sherlock, I think you may be on to something.” John tightened his fingers in Sherlock’s hair. “I won’t hit you,” John said, radiating calm control as he pulled hard on the sensitive strands, making him gasp in pain and surprise. “But I’m thinking hitting isn’t the only way to give you what you want. You want sensory input? I can get--” he pulled Sherlock’s head up and leaned closer-- ”Very--” he pulled his hair even harder-- “creative,” he whispered, licking the delicate curve at the top of his ear. Sherlock moaned, a throaty, desperate sound that sent a jolt of fire straight through John’s body. “Oh yes, John,” he breathed. "Yes, please.”

call-me-tindo said: From facebook (shared the image in a johnlock group) "Maybe The Ashes on the Ground by 221Beloved?" From Teri

solarprophecy said: Not sure if either is the one you want but both might scratch the itch: Operation Honecoming by PlainJane and Iris by Slashscribe :)

helloliriels said: 100% have read this one ... gah! What is it?! ...

=====

The Ashes on the Ground by 221Beloved (M, 69,260 w., 22 Ch. || Post-TLD, Miscommunication, Pining, Depression, Angst with Happy Ending, POV Sherlock) –What happens after? After the fire has burnt down and left nothing but ashes? Roughly two and a half years after what happened at Smith's hospital, things have settled. But have they really? Or is it all still hovering. And what if someone whirls up the ashes again? An old acquaintance. Can something new arise from cold ashes? Something stronger? [TRANSLATIONS: 中文-普通话國語]

Operation Homecoming by PlainJane (M, 6,947 w., 6 Ch. || Post-S3, Developing Relationship, Friends to Lovers, Family, Parentlock, Kissing, Fluff, Angst) – Sherlock knows what he wants, and he's set about to get it.

Iris by slashscribe (E, 11,948 w., 1 Ch. || Parentlock, Pining Sherlock, Post-S3) – Sherlock does his best to make John happy when John comes back to 221B with his new baby after the events of Season 3, but Sherlock has a track record of getting things wrong in this area. This story is an exploration of their gradual shift from friends to lovers, told from Sherlock's perspective, full of a lot of pining and lack of emotional awareness.

=====

Ooooo, I don't think it's Iris because Rosie is not in it (but the plot is VERY similar to the request; maybe this is why the request seems familiar, Iris is one of my fave fics), but maybe it's one of the other two!!

Thank you, hopefully one of these hits the right beats for Nonny!!

Hiii!!!

I'm looking for a fanfic I remember reading a longgg time ago, and I've been through my bookmarks on ao3 up and down and I just can't pinpoint it, so I thought it was worth a shot to ask here!

It's set just after Sherlock returns after he's been "dead" (cant remember if him coming back happens in the beginning of the fic or if the fic just takes place /right/ after he comes back), and the crucial part I remember about the fic is that John is pissed at Sherlock but somehow ends up without a babysitter to look after Rosie and Sherlock offers to look after her, which John is very much /not/ happy with but he kinda has no choice. Sherlock is all sad bc John is still mad at him, but he's trying so hard to connect with him by trying so hard to care for Rosie. The fic then takes off from there, but that's the only scene I remember!

so, to summaries:

Post Jump / Sherlock returns

Rosie exists (but not Mary, I think? I cant remember her being in the picture)

John is still mad

John reluctingly leaving Rosie in Sherlock's care bc he's out of options

Sherlock being all whump and sad but so desperat to have John in his life in any way he can.

Help? I'm also accepting of fics with this concept as a whole, even if it's not the fic I'm looking for honestly

Thank you so much for what you do for this fandom! your account is a treasure!!

Hey Lovely!!

Thank you so much for your kind words!!

Oooooooo This sounds SO FAMILIAR but I have NO IDEA which one it is!

Anyone able to help us out with this one?
